Effects of Forces Revision Questions

The document discusses a physics problem involving a spring's extension due to a suspended mass on Earth and the Moon, asking which mass on the Moon would cause the same extension. It also includes a speed-time graph for a parachutist, requiring labeling of points indicating acceleration changes and an explanation of the forces acting on the parachutist from jump to parachute deployment. The document includes specific instructions for labeling and explaining the motion changes in relation to forces.

4 On Earth, a spring stretches by 5.0 cm when a mass of 3.0 kg is suspended from one end.

1
The gravitational field strength on the Moon is of that on Earth.
6

Which mass, on the Moon, would stretch the spring by the same extension?

A 0.50 kg B 3.0 kg C 5.0 kg D 18 kg

(b) Fig. 1.2 shows a vertical speed–time graph for a parachutist who jumps from a stationary
hot-air balloon.

A
speed
Fig. 1.2

B
0
0 time
The parachutist jumps from the balloon at time = 0 and reaches the ground at B. The point A
indicates when the parachute opens.

(i) On Fig. 1.2, label a point on the graph where the acceleration is:
• zero with ‘1’
• negative with ‘2’
• decreasing with ‘3’. [3]

(ii) Explain, in terms of forces, the changes in motion which occur from when the parachutist
leaves the hot-air balloon until point A.

1(b)(i) point, labelled 1, on either of the horizontal sections of the graph (to the left of A or to the left of B)

point, labelled 2, on the graph between A and the start of the horizontal section of the graph to the left of B

point, labelled 3, on the graph between the start of the curved section to the right of the origin and the start of the horizontal
section of the graph to the left of A

1(b)(ii) (initially there is acceleration due to) weight OR gravitational force


OR unbalanced force / resultant force / downward force

(then) air resistance increases as speed or velocity increases

(as air resistance increases) resultant force downwards decreases OR acceleration decreases

constant speed when air resistance = weight / gravitational force
